We may all experience distress at some point in our lives. Maybe you feel that you struggle to keep on top of things; think you are 'not good enough'; struggle in relation to others; feel down; lack confidence; worry; or are stuck due to disturbing memories. Distress presents in numerous ways and how we deal with it can be dependent on our experiences. Many experiences are out of our control. If you are having difficulties with emotions, thoughts, behaviours or relationships (maybe even a combination), you may be at a point where you are thinking about change and need some help achieving this. We can explore your hopes together.
Your difficulties deserve to be met with compassionate understanding. As a Counselling Psychologist, I am qualified to explore your difficulties with you and offer evidence-based approaches to develop awareness; make sense of your experiences; and learn new skills. I aim to do this within a safe therapeutic relationship that we build together, at your pace.
Life can be tricky and I offer to navigate this in a warm, supportive space. I aim to empower you to approach problems, manage distress, and live well. Your therapy plan will be tailored to your needs and hopes. If you are interested in working together, email to arrange a call - PLEASE check your junk folder for my reply: known issues especially with Gmail.

I have specialist experience in working with trauma/adverse experiences (including PTSD and complex PTSD). Please note I do not offer a crisis service. As part of a thorough assessment, you will be asked questions pertaining to risk. If I cannot meet your needs due to high risk factors, I will be open with you about this so that we can guide you to more appropriate support to best meet your needs.

We will take time to explore your difficulties, building a shared understanding. I often work integratively, guided by your unique context, difficulties and preferences. This works particularly well for trauma, where we may do phases of work (e.g. stabilisation, cognitive processing and/or EMDR). I also enjoy using approaches such as ACT and CFT to help develop useful skills for a range of issues.
